• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

My aluminum turtledeck has lots of rivets and a few other blemishes I'd like to smooth out before cover. ACS offers a 3 ounce/yard non-woven polyester product in 60" width for use on leading edges and turtle decks (P/N 09-01750). Can't find any guidance on the application of this material in either the Poly-Fiber or Superflite manuals or here on the Forum. Can anyone point me to a comprehensive source that describes all the steps for using this material before the fuselage fabric is glued and shrunk over it? Thanks in advance--Ed T
